All about Sorokin jacks

Every driver can have an emergency when a tire burst in the middle of the road, but you are far from the center and there is no service station nearby. Then a jack will come to your rescue - these are devices that are designed to raise the car above ground level and fix it at the height you need.

Jacks are also called hydraulic attachments, which provide a high level of lifting capacity and safety. The design is quite simple, so it can be easily assembled with your own hands. Due to its characteristics and importance, the jack is an indispensable tool in every driver's car. The main feature is that it is not located on top, like all similar mechanisms, but below. In addition, the jacks are easy to transport and will help you do without any aids.

Sorokin is one of the five best manufacturers of car jacks and has an extensive network of stores in the CIS. They mainly specialize in wholesale and are popular among service station owners. This company has existed on the Russian market since 1996 and is engaged in the sale of tools and equipment for car services, and also produces completely new models that have no analogues.

The main advantage of the products of this manufacturer is lifting capacity up to 3 tons, as well as the distance from which this device can easily lift your car - from 5 cm. The kit contains all the tools necessary for lifting and is very mobile.

Depending on the internal design and functionality, these types of jacks are found.

• Rack jacks stand out with a long one-meter frame, and a special locking lever is used to hold the load. This model is used not only for lifting vehicles, but also for cargo in the depot.

• Electro-hydraulic tools function thanks to water. Among the advantages of such a device are: stability and reliability of the structure, lifting of large dimensions, lightness and simplicity in operation, as well as high efficiency. The lifting capacity of the electric tool ranges from 2 tons to 200 tons. There is such a variety as the hydraulic trolley jack, which functions exclusively on a smooth and solid surface. It rolls under the car, at a certain angle you need to make an effort to lift the device.

• Telescopic (bottle) instrument... The so-called "bottle" contains water, a valve and a piston. With the help of a lever, fluid is pumped in and the piston rises.

• Inflatable is a bag made of durable material, which is filled with exhaust gases and is pumped using a special pneumatic pump.

The lifting capacity of the devices depends to a large extent on the internal construction of the jacks. So, the universal dimensions that almost every tool can lift is 2 tons. However, jacks can withstand less and heavier loads. So, the manufacturer of electro-hydraulic jacks "Sorokin" presents the following models:

• hydraulic jacks this manufacturer with a lifting capacity of 3 tons, 5 tons, 10 tons, 20 tons, 30 tons and even the maximum mark - 100 tons;
• hydraulic double-rod jacks, starting with indicators of 2 and 3 tons, ending with the ability to pick up dimensions weighing 30 tons;
• and the latest model is pneumohydraulic jacks, the carrying capacity of which varies from 12 to 50 tons.

• Carrying capacity... You will need to know the weight of your vehicle in order to choose the right jack, as a light and low-quality option can only aggravate the situation.
• Lifting height. The minimum and maximum height the tool is capable of lifting.
• Pickup height. This also refers to the range of distance, however, from which this mechanism can lift.

After reviewing reviews of all types of jacks, you can evaluate their advantages and disadvantages. Comparing mechanical and hydraulic tools, it can be concluded that devices with work with liquids will have an undeniable superiority. This is due to the fact that such devices involve the use of more powerful efforts - the difference in these indicators is quite high. Moreover, the units allow you to use less of your diligence than mechanical models.

But still, the advantage of mechanics over hydraulic jacks is that they are more stationary, since they have heavy dimensions, they are difficult to transport. Therefore, they are more suitable for use in the workshop. Thus, jacks are the very necessary devices that will come in handy if you travel long distances.
